You expect to pay a premium penny for Apple’s MacBook Pro and MacBook Air computers — they’re the best of the best, and usually have price tags to match. But the 2024 Prime Day sales are proving a fantastic time for picking up one of Apple’s laptops at a discount.

Whether you’re after a Pro, an Air, a 13-inch, 14-inch or 16-inch device, we’re seeing the lowest ever prices right across Apple’s MacBook range.

Each powered by Apple’s homegrown silicon, we’re not talking about the regularly-discounted M1 devices. And we’re not just talking about M2 laptops either. We’re aso talking about the current top-tier M3 range, still the cream of the crop while we await the M4 MacBook arrival. (Remember, it’s just the 2024 iPad Pro rocking the M4 at present).

Here’s our top picks for what’s on offer right now — and be sure to check out our Best Prime Day Mac and MacBook deals round up for offers not just on the laptops, but Mac accessories too.
